    Hi, I've just bought PGR 3 for my xbox 360, got it home put it in the 360 and started it up
    Nice intro, created my profile and started the game.

    Anything fine on my Tosh HDTV looking really good on the first lap, coming first brill, then as soon as I hit the second lap this happens

    The game didn't crash but loads of blocks,walls and the track turns into water, it just appears then disappers making it imposible to play.

    I have tried different leads and on a normal TV with normal settings still the same.

    I have contacted Microsoft and they are picking up my xbox to have aa look or replace the console.

    anyone else had the same problems?

    Mr O

    if this doesnt happen on other games i suggest you not let MS replace your console, they will just give you a referbished one.

    seriously dont do that.

    does it do that on other games?
    peace

    Hmmm, sounds to me like somewhere along the line your X360 is having somesort of hardware issue.. a bug in the drivers maybe. Not really sure.. Was your dash updated recently?

    You really should have exchanged the game first! :) Oh well, maybe when you get your new/used X360 it'll work for ya.;)

    hey @mrolympia,
    i would have kept that xbox 360 . imagine playing online and its like that it would be funny :> did it do this in any other games or original xbox games?

    o and you should have ingraved yoru name on the disc drive to make sure you get your xbox 360 back and not someone elses broken one :0 .

    iv had a faulty xbox 360 and i replaced it with game (where i got it) and they ordered a brand new xbox and swapped everythink over but le me keep my original hardrive :).
    the wweird thing is when you download xbox live arcade games here only ment to work on that console with that serial. but with my new one it played all the xbox live arcade games that was on my old console and i had the full versions aswell.

    I was having problems with other games, GRAW crashed twice when playing for around 1 hour and the dashboard crashed to.
    I did do an update but got the PGR3 and GRAW after the update so i don't know if this would have caused it.

    As long as I get an xbox 360 that works I'll be happy

    Ya, if you where having problems what else could you have done? Exchange it was all you could do.

    Good luck.
